(Directions 1-5) :
Among them, the number of female employees is two less than the male employees.
(From the above statement we can conclude that there is 3 female employees and 5 male employees.)
No other male employee sits at the extreme end of the row other than the employee belonging to English department. S sits second to the right of H. The S and the one who faces H belongs to the same department. S faces a female employee who belongs to neither English nor Quants department.
(From the above statements we can conclude that S sits at one of the extreme ends. Also that, all the female employees sits at the extreme ends.)
(We get two possibilities based on the position of S and H – Case (1) and Case (2) respectively.)
K sits at the extreme end of the row and faces the employee of the same department but not CA.
(Here we get further two possibilities based on the position of K.)
Only one person sits between M and D. The employee sitting at the immediate right of D belongs to the same department as D. M is not an immediate neighbour of S or H. The employees belonging to CA department doesn’t face north. E belongs to reasoning department and is an immediate neighbour of the employee who belongs to English department. V is an immediate neighbour of the employee from English department. E and V don’t sit in the same row.
(Since, M & D is not a neighbour of S and H; M and D sit in the other row. Since, the employee sitting in immediate right of D belongs to same department as D; we can conclude that D sits at the extreme ends in all the four possibilities.)
(From the above statements, we can conclude that D sits opposite to S and since the employees from CA doesn’t face north; we can conclude that D belongs to CA department. We can fix E and V near English department Employee. Also we can conclude that K and the person sitting opposite to her belong to Quants department.)
(From the above statements, we can conclude that D sits opposite to S and since the employees from CA doesn’t face north; we can conclude that D belongs to CA department. We can fix E and V near English department Employee. Also we can conclude that K and the person sitting opposite to her belong to Quants department. We get two possibilities based on the position of E and V.)
(From the above statements, we can conclude that D sits opposite to S and since the employees from CA doesn’t face north; we can conclude that D belongs to CA department. We can fix E and V near English department Employee. Also we can conclude that K and the person sitting opposite to her belong to Reasoning department. Since K and the person sitting opposite to her belongs to same department.)
(From the above statements, we can conclude that D sits opposite to S and since the employees from CA doesn’t face north; we can conclude that D belongs to Reasoning department.

Direction(6-10)
The one, who have 12 chocolates, sits fourth to the right of A. Only two persons sit between the one who have 12 chocolates and E.
Only one person sits between E and I, who have 34 chocolates.
O sits third to the left of Q, who has 28 chocolates. A is an immediate neighbour of Q.
In case 1b,A is an immediate neighbour of Q, this condition is not satisfied so rejected.
K sits a fourth to the left of M. Q is not an immediate neighbour of M. S sits two places away from G, who have 14 Chocolates. K is an immediate neighbour of neither S nor G. S is not an immediate neighbour of A.
In case 1a and case 2b, K is an immediate neighbour of neither S nor G, this condition is not satisfied, and so both cases are rejected.
M have twice the chocolate of K. S have more chocolates than O. The one, who have 22 chocolates, sits third to the right of the one who have 26 chocolates. The difference between the chocolates of S and O is 6.
Incase 2a (i), S have more chocolates than O, this condition is not satisfied so rejected.
